Florence made us very welcome - would definitely stay there again! She was very helpful and recommended a great restaurant for the evening, and also helped us find somewhere to sort out some problems we had with our vehicle.

Florence was the most kindhearted, interesting, and helpful host. Her home was absolutely lovely, very quaint on a beautiful farm which was home to a donkey, several chickens (which meant fresh eggs!), her husky and it's four puppies which were an absolute delight, and a gorgeous apple orchard, from which we were able to enjoy homemade sparkling apple cider. I would recommend it to everyone! If you are looking to see the beaches of Normandy she was very helpful in renting us a car so we could tour Utah, Point du hoc, omaha, the airborne museum, the American Military Cemetery, and a few German cemeteries. We had the best stay here and we are so grateful for Florence and her husband for hosting us!

Very pleasant and helpful host couldn't recommend enough. Beautiful location. I would gladly stay again

The hosts are super friendly and know the area well. We felt very welcome and could ask them all sorts of questions (best hikes, best restaurant, best beaches, best cliffs, etc). The living room is a bit small for four people and when you want to spend time in the house. But the bedrooms are spacious. The gite is located in a cute and central village. It's a good base to discover this part of Normandie!

We had a great time, housing is great, very functional, there is everything to live. The hosts are warm and very good advice. They love their region and sharing pleasure. The cottage is close to all and it's really great. Cotentin is a beautiful area, very beautiful landscape and a beautiful story. We recommend this cottage with great pleasure. A big thank you to Catherine and Benedict for this beautiful home.

This 2 bedroom cottage is situated in the centre of a village offering all amenities. It has recently been entirely remodelled to give a comfortable modern space from which to discover the Manche region of Normandy.

This centrally situated cottage is ideal for visiting the D day beaches and other historic sites for example Bayeux for the tapestry and Le Mont St Michel for the abbey. You do not even need your car for filling up the fridge! There is all you need in walking distance.

Everyone is very welcoming. There is everything you need close by from a dentist to a tourist office!

Nice house situated at the centre of the quiet village of Picauville. Mike and Chris offer you a basket full of regional products as a welcome gift. The house doesnt have TV (just for DVD's) which concerned our kids but it is full of books and table games instead. Mike and Chris live beside the house so they are always helpful for anything you need. It was a pleasant stay. Really recomended

Mike was a great host! Very helpful and available! The place is exactly like the description : cosy and charming. We had an amazing time and Picauville is a perfect place to discover the whole region! Everything is about 30minutes from it! Extra love for the cheminée! We will be back. Thanks

The cottage (2nd picture) is set in the grounds of our 16th century Manor house (the first picture) in the French national park - Le parc Marais du Cotentin. Open views, good restaurants and dining are all available locally. The cottage has its own garden, ample parking and inside the beamed ceilings and Fireplace make for a very homely feel. Four comfortable bedrooms and large sitting/dining room provide plenty of space. A great place for couples, solo adventurers or families (with kids).

Historic Normandy from the Norman builders to the D Day landings is all around you. In 1944 during the liberation the cottage was damaged in the fighting on June the 6th and paratroopers landed just a few hundred yards from the Manor.

A tranquil part of this national park sits all around the hamlet named after our Manor - Founcroup. Little in the way of traffic passes on the lane outside - but within a few minutes guests can be in historic Sainte Mere Eglise or other lovely medieval towns and villages. 15 minutes will have you at the sea - clean long beaches ideal for swimming or sun bathing - or landing an armored brigade!

We had a great time. The house is very comfortable: wood stove in the fireplace to make small fires (wood is available!), Blanket on the living room couch, full of towels available, good quality bedding (not always the case other Airbnb), cot available, good home furnishings. And what calm! No noise at night. And the house is located right next-filled marsh birds. That's wonderful. Sure, you need a car for touring around and shopping, but the house is ideally located to discover the surroundings (landing beaches, sea, advanced Hague, Cherbourg and its city of the sea ...). Ideal for families and nature lovers. are urged.

If you would have any doubts about making a reservation, take it from me and click to confirm. The information presented is accurate and the communication is quick and detailed. The house is quite away from the main road but with the directions you can find it without hassle. The house is an old farm, fully restored with old details and antique furniture but with all the modern day convenience you will need. Bedrooms are large and clean and nicely decorated. All three kids loved the beds. Bathrooms are clean and functional. All floors are either tile or wood. Great for those with allergies, very little dust. The kitchen has all it needs and more. Oven, dishwasher, more than sufficient plates and cups and all guests leave something behind so you have the basics upon arrival. Living room is large and has a TV and many games for all ages. Outside is a garage with about 6 or so bikes, fitting children from age 5-6 and up. So no need to carry those with you. Tennis court is shared but in the week I was there I have not seen anybody, nor would it have bothered us as it is out of view of the house. Normandy is yours to discover, the house is located close to Cherbourg/Utah Beach. Nearest supermarket is Carrefour Contact, 5min drive, mostly open from 8-20h. It is in a very quiet neighbourhood, great if you like that and can respect that. The house is a great starting point to explore Normandy. I absolutely recommend to book and enjoy this house.

I had an excellent stay with Florence. The house is beautiful and the accommodation really clean and comfortable. Florence and her husband were extremely welcoming and kind (both speak English) and offered me an evening meal for a supplement. Florence's cooking was incredible (especially her peach and apricot tart!) with most ingredients grown in their garden. They even gave me regular weather updates because I was cycling! Highly recommend. Thank you Florence!

I really enjoyed the stay at Florence's place. The description is exact and everything that was already said here is true! As others here already noted, their home-made cider is delicious indeed. Florence and Guy, her husband, provided me with a lot of information about the location. They are really well-prepared for anyone who is going to spend some time in Normandy. Btw., they both speak English. Don't miss the opportunity to meet these wonderful people and get to know the place and the neighborhood that is so closely tied to the events of the D-Day. I am truly looking forward to our next encounter.

Florence helped us on all aspects of our stay home. She greeted us with a smile and kindness by showing attentions (croissants or brioche for breakfast, for example). Good stay home.

William2016-07-18T00:00:00Z

Florence provided outstanding service while I stayed at her beautiful bed and breakfast. She and her husband went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and explained all I needed to know about the local area. She shared her homemade apple cider with me and showed me how they made it! It was excellent! I highly recommend staying at this bed and breakfast.

Florence's accommodations are located in a relaxing location not too far from two wonderful towns to visit. The surrounding area is quiet and peaceful, and Florence is a very nice woman. She was flexible with my arrival time and was generous in welcoming me and explaining the region. The accommodations were very clean and breakfast was wonderful. I would certainly recommend staying with Florence.

Beautiful sandy beaches and National Parks almost on your doorstep, including D-Day Landing Beaches. Ideal spot from which to explore the delights of Normandy. The gite is next to a 16th century cottage occupied by the owner and just a few minutes by car to the nearest village of Sainte-Mere-Eglise. There is a good-sized living/dining area with open-plan kitchen overlooking the garden, itself overlooking an apple orchard usually occupied by sheep or cattle. The National Parks offer bird-watching, fishing and other rural pursuits. This is an ideal spot from which to explore the delights of Normandy: Bayeux, Coutances, St-Lo, Sainte-Marie-du-Mont and Barfleur are just some of the places within easy reach. There are thriving local markets on most days of the week. Sainte Mere Eglise was one of the first villages to be liberated during the D-Day Landings and the Landing Beaches, Memorials and Museums are all within comfortable reach by car, the nearest Memorials and Museums being just a short walk/drive away. Among other things the National Parks offer boat rides, bird watching and nature walks and there are also water sports, tennis, golf and cycling routes. If you're on holiday just to relax and re-charge your batteries, then forget all that and just chill out in the garden, catch up on your sleep, enjoy a bbq and make a start on all those books you've been meaning to read. Please note this is a self-catering gite with a minimum stay of 3 nights. No smoking inside the gite please. Pets are welcome subject to prior agreement with the proprietor.

This neighbourhood is famous for its D-Day connections and there are so many WWII and much earlier sites of historical interest within easy reach. The gite offers you peaceful rural surroundings in which to relax and re-charge your batteries.

Nice and quiet place in the middle of the countryside. Perfect if you want to get away from everything that is even remotely busy. Sharon is a great host - make sure you ask her for restaurant recommendations as she knows an awesome place nearby. :)

The welcome was very warm. The heater was on, so the house was warm and it was basically every day when returning to the cottage the case. Florence was incredibly friendly and wanted to make it clear to our liking. Here she certainly succeeded! An additional advantage was that they spoke English, so our communication was somewhat easier.

Yvette2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

However arriving a bit early we were pleasantly welcomed by Florence, she explained everything in and around the gite (including the operation of the woodburner :)). The gite itself is very spacious and convenient, all the amenities you require are available. The garden is also very nice, here you can enjoy the silence and singing of the birds. The kids loved the owners Dogs and kittens very much! If you are planning plan to go for holidays to Normandie and explore the countryside Florence gite is a great place to stay.

Raoul2016-05-08T00:00:00Z

The guesthouse is a perfect house to discover Normandie. It has a well equiped kitchen and two bathrooms and two toilets. There is enough space and we loved the cosy warmth of the wood heater. There are enough beds to sleep in (3 double and one single bed). The garden is also beautiful, our children loved the rabbits, beautiful blue eyed dog Liv, the donkey Lisette and the eggs of the chickens. Florence is a kind and friendly host. She gave us nice tips what can be done in the surroundings and there is a lot to do. She speaks English very well and that's nice because our French is not that well. We had a very nice week in Normandie and can recommend this gite to you all who want to discover Normandie.

The Grange Cadot, a 3 Bedroom detached house, with Large secluded garden, and set in the beautiful and historical Beuzeville le Bastille, just a 3 kilometre drive from the local amenities.

The Grange consists 3 double bedrooms, one ensuite, bathroom with bath and separate shower and an open plan kitchen/dining room and living room and downstairs toilet.
Fully secluded garden, with large floral patio.

Picauville and surrounding areas offer a lot of activities to be enjoyed by all the family, beaches, golf, fishing, horse riding, jungle park to name a few. and the area specialises in Grand Houses open to the public

Needing somewhere to stay with my family and my brother and his wife I picked this place because of its proximity to the Normandy D-Day beaches which we intended to visit. I couldn't have picked better for the price. The house was comfortable and warm (which was a plus given the inclement and windy weather) and has all the facilities necessary for a much longer stay than the four nights we spent there. In addition we found a fold-up seventh bed should it be required. With much more to see in the area in the future we will certainly have this house at the top of the list when planning our trip.

The house of Mike and Chris is very beautiful and has everything you need for a nice stay in Normandy. The setting is perfect and the hosts will do anything to make sure you have all the information you want about the area, restaurants etc. I would definitely stay here another time if I were in Normandy/Picauville!

I organised for my family the trip through France! They enjoyed the stay in the small town Picauville! They would definitely recommend the accomodation and they would love to stay there again! The landlords are wondeful and warmly hosts!!!

A Lovely house with enormous bedrooms, a unique playground and nice restaurants nearby. Our hosts were very welcoming and offered great company for gin&tonics in the evening.

My place is close to The Normandy Battlefield Beaches. You’ll love my place because of The tranquility of the Normandy countryside. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and families (with kids).
